Right, we have two outstanding players competing with each other to win man of the match award for Bangladesh in every ODI in which they have taken part so far. According to BC members, who will win most matches for Bangladesh?. Both have different class, we have in my opinion found one world class bowler in Mustifizur and one world class batsman in Soumya. Whats your views and opinion? can this guys lead us to greater things in the future?.. or is it too early to say they look a class above all the players we have produced? Both Soumya and Mustifizur likely to play in the test match, shall be interesting to see which of them does well. Hoping both of them will do well and hence lead to greater contribution in Bangladesh turn around in test cricket.

Mustafizur, all four ODI were won first by the bowlers (2 against India, 2 against SA).

Thanks for the numbers. Many people are praising Soumya Sarkar too much and forgetting how Mustafizur's bowling + others has restricted opposition to a below par score. This allowed Soumya, who i think is world class like Mustafiz to have a free license to attack. Both of them has so far contributed really well in each of the ODI which they have played in.

The amount of people taking part in useless threads at BC is slow reaching the PP standard! Don't like it stay AWAY.

By the way, i am sure you may come back to this thread in couple of months or years time.. both mustifuzur and soumya will be main stars of BD cricket and will fight it out for the MOM award! so yeah if u don't like taking part in useless threads just don't comment at all, thank you

sarkar will play more match winning innings.....mustafiz not every time gonna able to pick up 5fa...so even though mustafiz bowled well and got 3 wkt....otherhand sarkar score 60 or 70 in a tight match.....im sure it will goes to him.......doesnt matter who get what.....its matter that we found some gold and stone....like to see them top of the world cricket like lara, and jhonson...

In ODI its SS has clear advantage over Mustafizur. SS is an opener and every time he shine, he has the potential to dominate the full innings. On the other hand Mustafizur can only bowl for one fifth of the innings, regardless how dominating he can be in the 10 overs, its still 1/5th of the innings. Plus ODI pitch favors batsman.

In test, it can be different. Mustafizur has the slight advantage. But ofcourse he need pitch that favors FBs.

I think both.. we saw Mustafizur winning them in India series, while Soumya did it against SA. I don't think, Soumya being a batsman will get him more than Mustafizur only bcoz Mustafizur did all that was necessary in his debut series to turn him into a star... and MOM do tend to favor people's favorites.. everyone's eye is always on Mustafiz and if he does great, not necessarily excellent in his standard, he'll still win it.. same goes for Soumya..

No, why? That'd mean one of them'll have dropped off. There was a close competition between Shak and TIK, but now Shak is the clear cut winner by far. I hope between SS-Musta it always stays close AF. We will have two game winners on both side of the ball.

@Tigers_eye, the poll date was purposely delayed by me. By that time we will find out and everything shall become clear. I am expecting a close rivalry (friendly one) amongst the two of them. As long as BD wins, that shall be the overall goal... but its very interesting.. I hope both of them reach the top player rankings before 2018!

These two hate each other already. It's obvious Mustafiz doesn't want Soumya to take away the limelight from him by scoring centuries, so he keeps bowling teams out for 160-170. Soumya had to settle for scores around 90 twice already. At this rate he has no shot at challenging SRT's 50 tons. He'll probably end up with 30 tons and twice as many scores around 90.
